Vinesh Phogat Disqualification: Why Indian Wrestler Disqualified Before Olympics 2024 Gold Match?

Paris Olympics 2024: Wrestler Vinesh Phogat's Disqualification From Gold Medal Bout Explained

Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat has been disqualified from the Paris Olympics for not meeting the weight requirement for her 50 kg gold medal match. Reports indicate Phogat was 100 grams over the allowed weight limit, leading to her disqualification. Consequently, she will not be eligible for a silver medal, leaving only the gold and bronze medals available in the 50 kg category. Despite the best efforts by the team through the night, she weighed in a few grams over 50kg this morning and was thus disqualified. She made the weight for Tuesday’s bouts but as per rule, wrestlers have to stay within their weight category on both days of the competition.
